Any value of x makes this equation true or all real numbers
-2(3x+12) is the same this as -6x-24 when distributed
so it's -6x-24=-24-6x
her -6x just disappeared so she is wrong :)
For this case we must follow the following rules of rounding
1) If the previous number is greater than or equal to five, then the next number increases by one unit
2) If the previous number is less than five, then the next number stays the same
Therefore, the steps for rounding to the nearest tenth is:
1) We observe that 3 is less than 5.
2) Therefore, the next number stays the same
Rounding to the nearest tenth is:
5.6
Answer:
1) We observe that 3 is less than 5.
2) Therefore, the next number stays the same

Answer: at 50 mph, she drove for 4 hours.
at 45 mph, she drove for 2 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let t represent the time that she spent driving at 50 miles per hour.
Taylor took 6 hours to drive home from college for Thanksgiving break. This means that the time that she spent driving at 45 miles per hour is (6 - t) hours.
Distance = speed × time
Distance covered while driving 50 miles per hour is
50t
Distance covered while driving 45 miles per hour is
45(6 - t)
Since the total distance that she drove is 290 miles, it means that
50t + 45(6 - t) = 290
50t + 270 - 45t = 290
50t - 45t = 290 - 270
5t = 20
t = 20/5 = 4
At 45 miles per hour, she drove at
6 - 4 = 2 hours
To answer the question, you have to multiply $25,200 by 1/4 (portion allocated/ alloted for the tax -
$25,200 * 1/4 = 25,200/4 (then divide 25,200 by 4)
= $6,300
Therefore, the family spent $6,300 for taxes from their annual income of $25,200.
